◆Energy monitor
The energy monitor can be used to check the vehicle drive status,
hybrid system operation status and energy regeneration status.
While charging from the external power source, the flow of electrical
energy while charging is displayed.
On vehicles with solar charging system, the approximate power genera-
tion level is also displayed.
When energy is flowing, an arrow appears and a bright point of light
moves to show the direction of the flow of energy. When energy is
not flowing, the bright point of light is not displayed.
●The arrows from the image of the engine to that of the electric
motor (traction motor) or tires are displayed in red.
●The arrow indicating energy consumption is displayed in yellow,
and the arrow indicating energy regeneration or charging is dis-
played in green. Also, the color around the image of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is changed.
As an example, all arrows are shown in the illustration, but the actual
contents of the display will differ.

A blue zone is displayed in the Eco area which can be used as a
reference operation range for using the accelerator pedal according
to driving conditions such as starting off and cruising.
The “ECO Accelerator Guidance” display changes according to the driv-
ing status, such as when starting off or cruising.
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly manner by driving according to the
display showing the accelerator pedal operations and staying within the
“ECO Accelerator Guidance” range. (P. 360)
